There was a guy on another watch forum selling unbranded MillionSmart tourbillons for around £300 if memory serves.

Well I guess the final thing wrong was there was some human that paid $1691.00 for this pile of crap even they the seller later stated in the auction "I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THIS MIGHT NOT BE ALL ORIGINAL. I DO NOT KNOW IF THIS IS TRUE BUT I AM SELLING IT AS IS. IF YOU FEEL THE WATCH IS NOT RIGHT PLEASE DO NOT BID. THANKS."! That is more than some good originals go for!
Something I will never get - why people well spend a lot of money on something even though they have been warned not to do it????? Before eBay hid the bidders names, I used to send emails warning bidders that the watch was a fake but most of them DID NOT WANT TO HEAR IT. In fact, a couple of them told me to get lost (or something similar to that) so I finally gave up. This flaw in the human physce will continue to allow fake anything to be sold on eBay forever because there will always be those who do not want to hear it. With the internet, it is SO easy to research anything in a few minutes that I find it unbelievable that anyone would by a fake watch. Craig

Can't argue with that Craig.

Not a day goes by when I'm amazed at what some people will buy on eBay - complete garbage going for 20 or 50 times what they are worth. I guess some people have more money than sense.
